i really think no one cares about you anymore, blog.
and that's good, cos with just u&me, everything will be fine

apparently some people still check back, blog.

he keeps niaoing me to update my blog, and why i don't update, whatnot.
derrick's nice anw.



i discovered 3 nice people this year who are not in 3n'07 or 2M'06!
this people, who i have never been classmates with, but are really good people:

1) ryan
2) derrick
3) hong hui



yeahh. these 3. im not sacarstic or anything!
they help you without expecting anything in return..hard to find such people nowadays




i got an msg of 3.2!
some random smart hacker decided to help me hack into the school system.
so i get my results one day earlier..
i got 50% bare passes for maths and bio.

geegee ftw
no more dotA from now on, no more CS, no more FIFA.
tmr's my last day out;
then it'll be mugging for eoys all the way

eoy ftw!





ohoh tonight's the final episode of prisonbreak2.
bing wants me to compile ALL the pb2 serials shown so far, from start to end, cos he missed out some..

i recorded them all in my blu-ray dvd recorder-thingo!
not all, but yeah. most.
i can't burn it onto a CD though..
so yeah. nothing for you bing
unless you come over (:





speaking of which. my sis wants to hold a poolside part on her birthday can
get all her sc friends over here for some dinner by our pool thing.
it sounds preeeety cool considering the last time we hosted a group more than 20 was like. 5 years back

tisplaceissoempty these days






i gtg for my pb2 soon.
like i always say;
all good things come to an end.
if they don't, they won't be good in the first place
human nature.

as my msn nickname muses:
if the world was perfect; it wouldn't be


sighs. thats how life works.
im addicted to appearing offline!
i have officially been appearing offline and talking for a month already
it feels quite good, choosing your audience



k what else.
its the end of term 3
my results..are even further away from the class average!!



hmmm. thankfully, in a positive sense
but still
3N we can do it (:
we'll own eoys, trust me

considering people like zx who can score in the exams yeah
TWO-EIGHT-ZERO FOR PSLE WORHHHHX.

thanks dad!
heh he didn't finish for his team..
the lotus had this power failure halfway, and he was the only one who could tamper it.

so he liked ran back and forth, for hours, and like. whoosh. apparently the problem's down with a switch that costed $20. and the campaign worth tens of thousands is down the drain like that..

so its a big :
D.N.F


(did not finish)
and yeah. thank god the other team finished 4th in the B cat!
which is no mean feat since its an international thing with professional drivers


dad's so much tanner and looks so much fitter now. they're new scars though x.x

he's very happy! racing is his love; and its the process and not the product that matters, according to him. so much pictures to paint the fond memories.


ONE MORE YEAR DAD. go for year next year HAHA (:

next week we'll have 2


robotics chairman's going sabah too anw.

we crashed out of the semis this year
anw like. so many people from class went.
zc, shaun, jiakun, ben, maybe a few more. maybe no one

i want finals
i want finals

next week is sabbatical
I bidded 999 points out of my 1000 points for MUN:

Negotiating the world: Model United Nations

sian la. after first round of bidding only 34 lots out of 50 taken up.
my 1k points have all gone to fking waste

just hope mun's slack enough for me to chiong my other commitments..
apparently before NJRC we're planning to stay from 8am to 9pm in the lab



no lifers, but our passion for robots run deep
lol.
13 hours is nothing;
aiming for championship award this year


tickets to europe for world tournament
yes we can

13.8.07

today, I witnessed the opening of the hungry ghost's festival
lol we were at the basketball court busy burning those incense stuff,
poking jossticks all over the compound..
yeah its a custom ever year really

just that this year, there were
handphones
gold bars
cars
apparrel
high heels
parcels
jewelery
calculators, to burn.



for my grandaunt and granduncle who passed on
they'll be safe and sound, they will.





I know my blog's supposed to die forever
but i had the internet for awhile anw;
doing my presentation for mep
so yeah might as well sneak on

major tests are over.
and trust me if I show you our class grades,

you'd
































































yes. thats how serious it would be.




anw tmr (hopefully) chem retest will be given back
i got E8 for the first test lol.
then theres MPP on thurs, in where im going as the supporter



i have a place for MPP booked for nxt year already anw, so might as well go watch,
get the feel


theres chi common test on wed which we were only told today
the school administration will screw up my dog's showering time
if anyone was ever stupid enough to let them even touch a dog



seriously.
a 'world class instituition' tells its 'future leaders' on a chinese test 3 days before?
lol if I told anyone about history test today you'd think i was trying to create some oscar wilde-ish joke





well, we screwed up anw
can't expect much if there were scripts with only 2 lines of response

for a 12 mark question.t
we were fucking given a paper which tested us on topics we were told, were NOT going to be tested.




everyone's asking me how life is.
why?
cos i haven been on msn for freaking ages




"life's bad, but when was it ever good"


Ctrl+C
Alt+Tab
Ctrl+V
*copies to the rest of the msn windows*


nothing more to be said.




"times up for your internet uesage!!!"


Alt+F4
Ctrl+Alt+Delete
Shut Down










how insipiring
and its seriously less than a month before EOY.




of course you count in I have the model UN sabbatical
and then grade 7 practical exam on 28th.
then NJRC presentation on week 10 and final run during holidays

not counting increased tuition times
and the mad rush for ACE points



im gonna morph into a mad vampire and suck the time out of everyone's schedule.
screams: I NEED TIME








but interestingly, no matter how dead my blog seems, people are always out there

samuel, through sms:
lousy niaoing of bing on your blog sia

derrick, during bio prac:
*runs up to me and mocks*
sobsob, your blog is no more? how? I am so sad

zx, leaving offline messages:
why are you leaving your blog? you really quitting blog?

wt, on tagboard:
yay! its alive

ml, much later:
you okay? you sound bad






and on and on and on.






IM QUITTING. DON'T COME BACK ALREADY IDIOTS.

9.8.07

last post for a long, long time.

it'll be my very very last post before the eoys..
and you're not gonna see me post for a very long time
till the exams end.



today was njrc grand finals
our sch bagged 11 awards this year
which was an improvement


the really sad thing was;
NONE came from my team.

yes, absolutely zero from a sec 3 team.
damm sian

the other sec 3 team had four. jc had 6, plus the championship.
they're going europe this end of year
pro-ness can.


they finally got their wish after so long, our seniors.
oh&of course, the 2 side events
2nd for sumo and 3rd for sprint. big step up from last year
whew





then we went ritz carlton for buffet
after all the mayhem.

ha i met friends at grand finals anw
eileen's group won an award
so yeah, congratsss


we saw Chang Yu-hsuan at ritz carlton again lol
with her boyfrienddd!

yeah. i saw her first and showed her to my sis and cousin
well my cousin's from st nicks.


they didn't believe me at first, and we bet on whether the guy was Chang Yu-hsuan's bro

then finally i saw them holding hands and getting food together

iwaslikesuaningtosis
"nxt time we get food we hold hands also, sweeter, okie? :D"

LOL. so yeahhh. their behaviour was downright erm. natural from the start
my cousin agreed hehhh.




the music at the buffet was so beautiful
when we went in it was like

can-can.
those happy famous classical pieces


its basically played by a quintet
there was guitar, piano, violin, and a really good double bass.
i miss the times when i lugged my double bass around

good form of training you know, the size (:




so anyway
they went to pachabel's canon in D
then it was like. winter sonata theme by ryu


by that time, u're like drunk and sober la
the violin was playing away at those tunes
and you're like. down&out after njrc

the music's so goddamm sad
it like. taxes you emotionally

my dad and I just stopped taking food to listen can!

then they played tonghua.
and erm. manymany modern, sad, beautiful korean/chinese songs
really really nice.




k thats not the main part, but thats all i guess?
njrc took up most of the day anyway
its supposedly the highlight

i think hci found some imba formula to sumo lol.


well. no more njrc nxt year, but still
theres FLL 2007 come december (:

its in our blood
ohh and i got to know this ijtp person.

who knows andre! same church or what

mrlumlumlum.
on mon we shall see

bye blog.
take good care during this time

i just finished a dotA match with beef and TC and zx lol..
im supposed to be watching national day
but yeah, as i said
deprivation-of-blogging means mad posting sprees.

apparently training tmr's cancelled cos the school gates are not gonna even freaking open.



that means being stuck at home again..
well actually im grounded till eoys
and the fact that i got to go out this 2 days, its good enough.

ytd was secrets, with friends, at westmall.
today was disturbia, with family, at great world

i swear to god my heart skipped quite a few beats throughout the movie
sure its funny, sure its (very) romantic, sure its thought-provoking
but the fear-instilling scenes dominate the whole movie.

even dad's spooked out



but at least the storyline wraps together nicely
sub-plots make sense too.
yesterday i loved the company of friends
today i loved the movie.

but afterwards i thought:
why does Shia LaBeouf pick up all the chicks?
he had megan fox in transformers alr
and this time he has..another cute sweetheart.

&this time the make-out scenes are hotter
Shia LaBeouf's a talent man
even james bond will be jealous of his female leads..


Shia Labeouf and Jessica Alba? not a very far-away prospect honestly
the scary part of suburbia though, is very scary
my sis watched it at cineleisure today
freakedout ftw man.






we went for lunch after that, then walked around
crowd at great world's not really cool..
its not near any MRTs or what, so the crowd's more mature i guess
parents, with kids, even teenagers
like me.




but that's better than being grounded i suppose
we were looking at handphones
then suddenly i felt this arm brush my back

i turned around to see this old hag pointing to her granddaughter,
"hey get this phone la! $42 only and look so nice. why have to think so much"


her daughter looked JCish already can
i gave her (the ah ma) a stare
and noticed that girl nodding her head absentmindedly
so this is how people spend Singapore's birthday.


well the girl looked nice and all though;
bringing her grandma out holding her hand walking around patiently




then we went to ask the counter where the CD shop was cos what does my sis wants to watch?
guess.









"Mr. Bean's Holiday"











she told us there was a THAT CD SHOP down at basement 1
and it looked really posh and all
so mom said
'whoa this place looks so highclass, the stuff here must be expensive'

i gave her that look:
oh man, a CD shop with better ambience than the rest and you call it high class! so ch..

she frowned then i laughed out loud.







and yes i really laughed out loud when i found out there was NO vcds in the entire store.
i walked up to the salesgirl and ask
you guys have any VCDs here?
"DVDs"
so there are no DVDs?
*looks up from her nails*
"no"


so after my dad listend to jimmy chan's imba piano pieces (much more realistic than secret mind you)
he walked out saying it wasn't worth it.
"at least we got to test it though, won't waste money"



i made down a mental note, posh-looking places expects you to play poshed-up prices.
like. $30 for a movie mind u
with what?

big speakers playing cool songs, wooden floor, dim lights, artistic staircases, shiny CD racks, and it goes on.


my dad was like "nvm la just get the DVD"
well at least i bothered to explain:


lol and what are the behind-the-scenes for?
see Mr. Bean screw up his take 2 scene 2 and laugh out one more time?
see the bonus scenes where Mr. Bean's bear amazingly jumps into a pool of fire and survive?
or see Mr. Bean's deleted scenes where he slaughters schoolchildren and impales their bodies into a thousand piecies before they took the scene out deciding that it was too violent?



well at least they laughed at my insight









so we did a hundred and forty km an hour down the ECP to stop at this small cornerstore at katong mall
i did my piano recital there during june..

in the end we got deathnote I and II, mr bean's holiday, and the last dance.
movies to fill up time during this 4 day break.


and unlike some rich people who systematically list out their expenditure for the day, i won't list prices.
all i'll say is that the prices for the CDs were dirt cheap.




come on, blogs can be used in any way you like, as i've said in one of my earlier post.

but blogs ain't where you give a detailed spreadsheet on how much you've spent with your girlfriend for the day. we know you're rich, we know you're cool, we know you're commited, but please, spare us the price tags.

say what you want, and if you're rich, anyone can tell.





i almost wanted to get prison break for EIGHTY DOLLARS,
but i decided against it. super busy these days


i upload pics of my dad's new toy, HONDA CIVIC TYPE-R,
but whats the point when this place is dead.



u get the whole point do you?
bragging sucks.










then afterwards me&dad went to gym
the one at national stadium?
cos its gonna close down in 2 months, with the demolishing of the current stadium
so yeah we went there to work out, train abit..

his race is in a few weeks, and everytime he races in his LOTUS ELISE,
he complains of muscles aches lol
gotta keep in shape.

that's where my post this morning about working consistently comes in.
work at it tirelessly, continually,
& only then that things work out.



after the gym we went to kfc, the one at stadium
super nearby, especially when you factor in how my dad handles a car.
we saw all the army personnel, stationed


there were wagons, jeeps, satellite dishes, tents, buses, all over
apparently they're setting up some sort of command post outside the stadium
absolutely empty inside though:
the gym's located at one of the wings, and we can see the vast green of the track

national stadium's completely empty, silent.
how oxymoronic



on a pleasant note, we spotted the building of a new MRT station there in progress
the stop's called "stadium" if im not wrong.
they're still building it




well its great news as long as it opens asap.
no more having to stop and paya lebar, which is really a 15min busride from my house
before they relocated the stadium,
every single year, my house had one of the best views of the fireworks around.



its telling why we went all the way to towerclub this year and the previous one just to catch the fireworks.

point is, my house's super close from the stadium






at KFC, we bought the FAMILY FEAST.
cos my dad wanted the eight piece chicken,
but KFC markets them at 2.40 a PIECE.

so yeah obviously the meal was much cheaper




while we were buying, this girl with a whore's dressing kept looking
its like, you can feel the stare on your back.
& everytime i turn, she'll look away,
as if she wasn't looking at my back previously,
pulling down her dress non-stop.




does she have a fetish for guys with socks that are seriously 10 inches high, wet&smelly from the gym, totally disfigured hair wearing a blank white tee with nothing but shorts to cover his legs?

these people are more freaky than the murderer from disturbia i tell you.
when leaving, she finally makes eye contact, watching you leave

maybe it was the car?
maybe.






damm this is one of the longest post ever
post-hiatus syndrome?


well my next relaspe will (minimum) be in a few (hundred) weeks time






now, time for fried chicken wings, then ndp parade, then piano, then my paper on climate change, then prisonbreak2


`happy birthday.

its the longest hiatus i have took..
can't even count the days that passed

no contact with the outter world;
practically no msn, no blogs, no emails, no smses

not that they matter much to me.
my life ain't my personal computer, my life ain't my cellphone.

but finally,
i have some breathing space
and I'll use the first day of my 4-day holiday to blog abit.
and i think it'll be the sept. holidays before i ever step in here again
better make this worthwhile, worth the moment.


bing's right to say bye to this blog in a way, cos no matter what i do,
this blog's slowly fading off already.

i can come back, post once inawhile, but it won't change a thing
thats the harsh reality of this world
as long as you don't keep at it,
things are gonna get eradicted
no matter what you do.

relationships, career, studies, sports, hobbies, skills..everything
im going for disturbia after this - ytd was secret
the show was average really despite all the comments
but it felt good being close to all my friends again



i heard disturbia was good: besides, Shia LaBeouf is hot in his own right
apparently he was a rising star since he acted as an evil brother of this random kid in this random American comedy.
that was his first movie

and he rose through the ranks, working at it, continually proving mainstream critics wrong
thats the way life works -
being consistent.

sure, u can top the results here and there, but with no consistency, things are bound to falter. thats the way of life, the way mankind has made out this world to be.



i visited flora's blog and friendster..somehow. the relief teacher who went to our school for a stint. it was quite shocking how she was even a teacher in the first place



today's ndp..and somehow when I watch the fireworks again, I know that sometime soon, watching them will feel alot better, alot more meaningful, alot warmer..


my sis went out with her SC friends for disturbia too. yeah and yesterday was absolute madness. there were students everywhere, and really, everwhere.

sis at plaza sing said so.
mom at parkway said so.
and ytd the movie was even more so.

there were this 2 crazy bitches who thought sitting on the cinema floor would allow them to get a better view of the movie.

well secret is sweet in a special way, and it adds a special dimension to the romance genre..yet somehow its unrealistic and abit linear, the storyline





my blog post is going around in doldrums i figured
blame it on the huge deprivation of blogging.


theres NJRC after this, and i won't be blogging for really, really ages.
i started on research already, robot design's out..video part and programming we'll have to crap something out for the judges in week 10.

not forgetting week 10 is my piano practical exams..
tests are down, and it ended on a bad note
then you have these competitions and piano exams
THEN the eoy.



hell in teenage years doesn't end there huh.
mr hon wants all humanities students to stay 1 year in the boarding school
and we were almost forced to stay 6 months in beijing lol.

sometimes life just wants to make you go 'lmao is this really happening to me?'


i chose model united nations as sabbatical..
well most 3Ners are in there anyway
for those who can take it


my MSG's screwed..
double D7 for maths,
one A2 for physics so far..

the rest are not even given out, gone through yet.
and yesterday was the last day for key-ing in for marks







anyone who can step up to me and say life's going okay in my screwed-up life,
I'll give him/her the best shit of his/her life.
and i mean it, seriously.
